中國對非洲軟權力外交之分析

Analysis of China's Soft Power Policy in Africa

由於非洲大陸佔有特殊而重要的地位，擁有豐富的資源以及強大的集體政治力量，為中國傳統的戰略盟友和重要的經濟貿易夥伴。如果能爭取其對中國認同、接受、羡慕甚至主動模仿，不僅有助於穩定與安全地獲得濟發展所需的原物料和商品市場；同時也能夠獲得必要的政治和外交支持。中國在非洲擁有政治、外交、經濟以及外交形象與話語權等國家利益，故長期把發展與非洲國家的關係作為自身外交的基石，軟權力運用成為中國外交政策的主要途徑。本文透過軟權力這一研究途徑來分析中非洲外交，首先本文將論述「和諧世界觀」以及軟權力的意涵以作為分析的基礎，其次說明中國在非洲的國家利益。最後則透過文化、經濟、多邊機制以及政治菁英互訪這四個面向來分析中國的軟權力外交
